I'm trying to set up my home theater TOADs (Toggle-Only-Actuated-Devices).
Using Smartlinc probes connected to a smartlinc Quad-Digital Break-Out-Box attached to inputs 1-4 (I/O Point 0-3) of the SECU-16 to monitor the on/off state of my equipment. I've removed jumpers P2-P5 and set Parameter 2 = 0 and Parameter 3 = 255.
This works except that triggering any of the four I/Os causes all the I/0s to go positive, even if they are not connected to the BOB.
Looks like crosstalk in the SECU-16. Any Ideas?

PROBLEM SOLVED!!
1 The supplied stub cable was wired wrong!
looks like Smartlinc used a 568A-T cable and just cut the end off.
This is the way the cable I got was made:
Probe 1 positive = Orange
Probe 2 positive = Red
Probe 3 positive = Yellow
Probe 4 positive = Brown
Blue, Black, Green, & White are all tied together as "ground" inside the BOB.
2 I had to pull the inputs low with 1.2K resistors to get reliable outputs.
3 Because of #2 the inputs are inverted but stable (Low = On).
